In a strange set of events, Alexa Bliss has now become the number one contender for the Smackdown women’s championship. She appeared on last night’s show to host a Moment of Bliss with the champion, Bayley. More of Money in the Bank talks went down between the two of them until Carmella and Charlotte Flair interfered as the latter one confirmed a title opportunity awaits ahead of them.

Alexa Bliss vs. Carmella vs. Charlotte Flair was underway under triple threat rules on Smackdown. The winner will get to face Bayley for the title over the championship at Stomping Grounds. Carmella dominated the match in the early going until Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville showed up to provide the distraction. They pulled Carmella’s legs after she delivered a superkick on Charlotte. Alexa Bliss took advantage of the situation and dropped Mella with a DDT to win the match and return to the title picture after a long time.
Alexa Bliss has become more of a talk-show host over the past few months rather than being a competitor. She is regularly hosting the Moments of Bliss on WWE Raw that has become a big attraction on the televised episodes. Now WWE.com wanted to boost the capacity of last night’s Smackdown adding Alexa Bliss to the card. WWE.com announced the very first Moments of Bliss on the blue brand,
“One week after Bayley’s hard-fought victory over Lacey Evans led to post-match chaos between The Lady and an interfering Charlotte Flair, the SmackDown Women’s Champion is scheduled to be Alexa Bliss’ special guest on “A Moment of Bliss.” How will The Goddess of WWE stir the pot in an already highly volatile Women’s division?”
As you can see, the Smackdown women’s champion Bayley was the special guest of Moments of Bliss. Earlier, Alexa Bliss picked up beef with the women’s tag champs, The IIconics on WWE Raw. So we expected them to interfere in the segment instead of Bliss getting a title opportunity. Also, it was hard to imagine a Raw star challenging a Smackdown star over the title. But it’s happening due to the applied Wild Card Rule by Vince McMahon.
